Carlos Sanchez ef0841e4cb can: slcan: allow reception of short error messages
Allows slcan to receive short messages (typically errors) from the serial
interface.

When error support was added to slcan protocol in
b32ff46685 ("can: slcan: extend the protocol
with error info") the minimum valid message size changed from 5 (minimum
standard can frame tIII0) to 3 ("e1a" is a valid protocol message, it is
one of the examples given in the comments for slcan_bump_err() ), but the
check for minimum message length prodicating all decoding was not adjusted.
This makes short error messages discarded and error frames not being
generated.

This patch changes the minimum length to the new minimum (3 characters,
excluding terminator, is now a valid message).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
